My girlfriends and I came across this restaurant on a 1 night stay in Launceston , we chose this place because it won an award, looked clean and had a great ambience about it, we were not disappointed with the service however we did find the food to be quite dry and tasteless. Nice enough place prob best to go... More

I have eaten here many times, and each time the food is consistently fantastic. The waiters and waitresses are so very helpful, and will go out of their way to ensure that your meal is exactly how you'd like. The food is phenomenal - legitimately the best Indian food I have ever eaten. The portions are generous and they will... More

It's really difficult to find a restaurant open at 5pm on a Monday in Launceston or any day for that matter so it was great to see the Open sign on Aaj India when we fancied a bite to eat before heading home after work. We'd dined here a few months ago and it was excellent then, and it's just... More

My husband and I thought the meal we ate here was fantastic! I ordered prawns and they were cooked perfectly! Everything was delicious! Hopefully we can go back soon!

We've eaten at Aaj since they opened.. but sadly our last experience was not so great. We waited for almost an hour and a half for our meals, and were then served our currys but without the rice or naan breads that we ordered, we again had to wait, meaning our curry was very timid by the time the sides...

We thoroughly enjoyed our first dinner at AAJ and look forward to taking friends with us next time. We ate butter chicken, madras beef and butter naan, with mango kulfi for dessert. Every mouthful was delicious. I enjoyed a glass of very good local Tasmanian wine, and was astonished by a kids menu, which I've never come across in an... More

Superb food, great advice from staff on what to have as we wanted to try something we hadn't had before. Very attentive staff and very polite. We will definitely go back and highly recommend this restaurant to others.

After dining and drinking chai at Aaj's, thoughts float back to the cuisine of India. Would have to honestly rate the experience here as one you need to have when you come to visit the northern part of Tasmania. Fabulous authentic food in a friendly atmosphere

Enticing aroma as soon as you walk in the door. The food was delicious, service was quick and staff were very friendly and efficient. I look forward to dining here again, and trying some different items from the extensive menu.

Having lived in India for many years, I am glad to know that here in Tassie at AAJ I can enjoy the best of food, ambience, and service. The chats and biryani were superb, -pity I live on the mainland, -hoping for another trip soon to Launceston!
